Right now it's rumour, heresay and no real facts - I'd like to see before and after screenshots, understand what it means to gameplay - and what on earth it means to future suport if I get a russian copy etc etc. Personally I hope we get a fixed western version - we may not even miss the high contrast stuff - until I see comparisons I cant make a rational choice anyway - just my 2 pence worth - but I trust 1 C to fix it in the end, and after 6 years I can wait a bit more. I hope SLI will get fixed - it must do or all other tiles from ubi will also be SLI handicapped and wont sell - cant believe it's just related to this 1 game. Anyway - just bought ROF - will enjoy that until this is fixed - which I'm sure it will be just not sure if it will be 2 weeks or more....

Well, for now you can look at the official 1C vids and compare to what guys from russian are putting out now. The performance difference seems huge imo. Also, the filter is not a rumor. Luther is the one who told us about it in the first place.

well if lets say this problem happened with 1946, the devs would take a known performance benchmark ( ie black death) run it with and without filter, give us screenshots and framerates (say on a mid spec machine) so we can make informed judgements - so why cant they do that here - so we know what the issue is - if its a deal breaker or not? Too many variables with all the vids on you tube - you are not comparing apples with apples. I would like to see some real examples - directly comparable. It's not too much to ask, maybe 30 minutes or an hours work. If we don't see it, then maybe there is a problem they dont want to show, but I'd rather see it and understand if it will be a quick fix or not. Unless it is totally fubar I'm still buying it as I believe any problems will be fixed (been flying il2 since 2001) - but I just want information. Lack of information creates a vacuum where rumours and ill informed comment will kill this game... just my 2 pence(cents for the us guys) worth.

Look at these videos that Nike-it posted with the retard filter in place. He has

high end machine. If you read that thread carefully, he implies that his machine

or a very similar machine was used for the 1C official company vidoes. I think

you will find a huge performance difference. For me, it is enough to say

something has to change. The retard filter has got to go. Avg. 30 fps on a high

end machine with mid-low settings??? Not good enough. Not good enough at

all imho.

agreed - which is why I want some numbers to back up what we are seeing from videos etc - then we can make real informed choices

He gives the fps numbers in the thread. After you watch those, go here

then tell me you don't see one hell of a difference. No numbers needed really.
